Re: Autocrat vs Institutionalist
I'd like the discussion not to rehash the merits (or demerits) of either candidate, or the value of liberalism vs conservatism, but to focus on Autocracy vs Institutionalism , whether these classifications adequately describe the candidates, whether the terms are helpful or unhelpful in understandi...
